Tamil Nadu Cricket
There is some hope that the long-standing issue of three empty stands at the MA Chidambaram stadium in Chennai might be resolved shortly, with the lease of the stadium now being extended. The Tamil Nadu Cricket Association, in a media release on Thursday (December 12), stated that the local government extended the lease of the stadium for 21 years, adding that there is now a possibility "to begin the process of regularising the setback at the stadium which will lead to the reopening of the sealed I, J and K stands."

New Zealand in Australia 2019
New Zealand suffered an injury blow on Day 1 of the pink-ball Test against Australia in Perth as debutant Lockie Ferguson left the field due to what is suspected as a right calf strain. On Friday (December 13), the MRI scan has confirmed a right calf muscle-tendon strain which will prevent him bowling in the remainder of the first Test in Perth, although he is available to bat. The next steps of his recovery are awaited.

Maxwell's Back!
Glenn Maxwell will lead Melbourne Stars in the upcoming Big Bash League, having returned from his break to deal with mental health difficulties, it was confirmed on Thursday (October 12). The allrounder had taken a break in October but has joined the Stars pre-season camp to gear up for the tournament.

Bangladesh Cricket
Bangladesh selector Habibul Bashar, on Thursday (December 12), expressed great concern over the form of Mustafizur Rahman - the way he is becoming too predictable - and implored the left-arm to come up with new ideas for getting his old rhythm back.

The CSA Saga
Like a torpedoed ship, oil hemorrhaging out and water gushing in, Cricket South Africa's (CSA) bumbling board is deep in its doom spiral. It will not rise, but still, it tries, the impending demise ever more desperately denied. The sad saga reached a diabolical level between Wednesday night and Thursday morning when two board members veered onto opposing paths.

BPL 2019
Sylhet Thunders team director Tanjil Chowdhury revealed they have requested Bangladesh Cricket Board to investigate the wide and no-ball of Krishmar Santokie in his opening over against Chattogram Challengers in the first game of the Bangabandhu Bangladesh Premier League at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium on Wednesday.

U19 World Cup 2020
Recent Sheffield Shield debutant, Liam Scott, has been named in Australia's 15-man squad for the Under-19 Cricket World Cup, which will be led by Victoria's Jake Fraser-McGurk, capping off a wonderful couple of months for the 17-year-old. The third-youngest Sheffield Shield player in the state's history scored two fifties in the space of a week for the Victorian senior team. Also, his 54 against New South Wales in the One-Day cup made him the youngest-ever to hit a half-century in the tournament.

West Indies Tour Of India, 2019
Mayank Agarwal has been included in India's ODI squad for the upcoming three-match series against West Indies. The Karnataka opener has been roped in as a replacement for Shikhar Dhawan who's still recovering from a knee injury he sustained earlier in the domestic season.

Afghanistan Captaincy Roulette
The Afghanistan Cricket Board has reappointed Asghar Afghan as the national team's skipper across all formats. The decision was taken after consulting the top management, the ACB confirmed on Wednesday (December 11). Afghan, who was the national team's long-standing captain, was controversially relieved of his duties just before the World Cup, with the decision publicly criticized by the likes of Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi.

BBPL
Mushfiqur Rahim, the Bangladesh wicketkeeper-batsman isn't happy with the disparity in the players' payment in the Bangabandhu Bangladesh Premier League. Bangladesh's A+ category cricketers receive TK 50 Lakh while the foreign A+ category cricketers get TK 84 Lakh in the BBPL. Meanwhile, Bangladesh's A category cricketers receive TK 25 Lakh which is less than half of what the foreign cricketers in the A category get - TK 56 Lakh - which according to Rahim is a 'discredit' for the Bangladesh cricketers.

Cricket South Africa Mess
Graeme Smith's appointment as director of cricket, which was confirmed on Wednesday, will raise hopes that the game in South Africa will turn a corner after months of crisis caused by administrative mismanagement and poor leadership. The former captain is the first person to take on the role with Cricket South Africa (CSA), who have been rocked by calamities ranging from mounting financial losses to an increasingly hostile relationship with their only assets, the players.

Pakistan vs Sri Lanka, 2019-20
The first day's play in Rawalpindi ended on an even keel between Pakistan and Sri Lanka, but the visiting side captain Dimuth Karunaratne rued the fact that his batsmen threw away their starts in the second session. From 96 for no loss at one stage, and then slipped to 137 for 4 by Tea.

West Indies Tour Of India, 2019
The uncontrollable was in West Indies' control at the Wankhede Stadium in the crucial series-decider. Kieron Pollard won the toss and it was a no-brainer that he opted to chase on a wicket that had plenty of runs in it and on a ground where dew would assist the side chasing. Not a lot of overseas cricketers know the Wankhede as well as Pollard does, having spent ten years there with the Mumbai Indians. Even all that experience, the hands-down success of chasing sides, and the fortune at the toss, wasn't enough to give West Indies what would've been their first T20 series win in the year. India demolished them to post 240 in their 20 overs.

West Indies Tour Of India, 2019
KL Rahul scored two half-centuries, finishing as the second top run-getter in the three-match T20I series, just 19 runs behind Virat Kohli's 183. Rahul wasn't India's first-choice opener. It was on the back of Shikhar Dhawan's injury that Rahul was picked. That, despite tallying 313 runs in eight innings, averaging 52.16 with a strike-rate of 155.72 in Karnataka's Syed Mushtaq Ali title defense.

No Time Frame For Return
Moeen Ali, the England all-rounder, admitted that he was tempted to "get back out there" following talks with the captain and team management ahead of the South Africa tour but eventually decided to extend his break from the national team, which he feels will help him extend his Test career.

ICC Under-19 World Cup, 2020
Wellington's left-arm spin-bowling all-rounder Jesse Tashkoff will lead New Zealand at the upcoming U19 World Cup in South Africa. The side will be coached by Paul Wiseman. Squad: Jesse Tashkoff (c), Adithya Ashok, Kristian Clarke, Hayden Dickson, Joey Field, David Hancock, Simon Keene, Fergus Lellman, Nicholas Lidstone, Rhys Mariu, William O'Rourke, Ben Pomare, Quinn Sunde, Beckham Wheeler-Greenall, Oliver White"These boys should be proud of their selection in the U19 side but they will know the hard work is ahead of them," Wiseman said.

Pakistan's Test Homecoming
A narrative tapestry of the kind this series presents doesn't come about every day. Test cricket in Pakistan certainly doesn't come about every day. So it's easy to get caught up in the moment. Not just for the fans, but for Pakistan's players too. The successful conduct of the limited-overs rubber against Sri Lanka in Karachi - a couple of months back - paved the way for their return, this time in whites, more than 10 years after a Sri Lankan team was attacked.

Sri Lanka Tour of Pakistan, 2019
With Sri Lanka all set to feature in the first-ever Test match in Pakistan in over ten years, skipper Azhar Ali is hopeful more teams will follow suit in the future. No team has played Test cricket in Pakistan ever since the terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan team bus in 2009 with the Pakistan Cricket Board hosting teams in neutral venues. But after a decade, the Sri Lankan side will return now to play two Test matches, with the first game beginning on Wednesday (December 11) in Rawalpindi.

Comeback Bid
India all-rounder Hardik Pandya is hopeful of returning to international cricket around February 2020, midway through India's scheduled tour of New Zealand. Hardik laid low by a chronic back injury that required surgical intervention, has not played competitively since the Bengaluru T20I against South Africa in mid-September.

Ranji Trophy 2019-20
Vaibhav Arora's six-wicket haul meant that Saurashtra was bowled out for 141, with a marginal 21-run lead. But in the same game, Jaydev Unadkat also accounted for six scalps, with his 6 for 51 limiting Himachal Pradesh to 182 despite half-centuries from Ankush Bains and Rishi Dhawan. But Arora was not done for the day as he picked up two more to create some jitters in the Saurashtra camp. The Unadkat-led side ended the day at 96 for 3, needing 66 more for victory with Cheteshwar Pujara still to bat.

Windies Tour of India, 2019
Virat Kohli's rather animated knock-in Hyderabad not just gave India a series lead, but it jolted the West Indies. En route his 50-ball unbeaten 94, Kohli didn't just tear apart West Indies' bowling but hurt their confidence as India chased down a total over 200 with more than an over to spare. Kesrick Williams was at the receiving end of his notebook-tick celebration from the Indian captain. While it could've been rather deflating for Williams and then the team, they bounced back with an eight-wicket win in fine fashion, showcasing just why they are a force to reckon with in the shortest format.

West Indies Tour of India, 2019
A proactive captain who knows the Wankhede stadium quite well, coupled with their lengthy stay in India has played a full series against Afghanistan before this series, will hold West Indies in good stead going into the T20I series decider against India on Wednesday (December 10), according to head coach Phil Simmons.

BPL 2019-20
A day ahead of the start of the 2019-20 edition of the Bangladesh Premier League, West Indies allrounder Andre Russell revealed why he preferred this T20 tournament over the Big Bash League in Australia. "The tournament [BPL] is more fun and it is shorter and so less time away from home," Russell told reporters when he was asked why he picked BPL. "I get a lot of love here. The hospitality and everything are amazing. You get a warm welcome on this side of the world. I never really think twice.

New Zealand's Tour of Australia, 2019-20
The classic Boxing Day Test isn't moving to The Perth Stadium just yet but the plush new facility at Burswood is making all the right moves, starting with its maiden day-night fixture in the upcoming series between Australia and New Zealand. Many feared that the drop-in pitch used would lack the pace and bounce of WACA, but the 22-yards dished out for its maiden Test fixture had plenty of it, and saw India going down by 146 runs in their only defeat in the four-match series. Add the pink-ball intrigue to the available pace and bounce and there's a sense of unpredictability about it all -- a "sense of unknown," as Steve Smith puts it.

New Roles
South African cricket could take another step backward to go forward by enlisting Gary Kirsten to put out some of the fires raging in the game. Kirsten, who won the 2011 men's World Cup as India's coach and took South Africa's men's team to the No. 1 Test ranking in 2012, seems set to be brought in as a mentor to Enoch Nkwe, who suffered a 3-0 thrashing in India in October in his first Test series as interim team director.

Ranji Trophy Highlights
As many as 10 teams failed to last the opening day of Round 1 of the Ranji Trophy 2019-20 season, with eight getting bowled out before they could cross the 200-run mark - with six such totals being under 150 - as the bowlers enjoyed the outing in the season opener. Himachal Pradesh vs Saurashtra and Uttarakhand vs Jammu and Kashmir were the two encounters in which most wickets fell on the day (17 each).

County Stint
Nottinghamshire has secured the services of Pakistan pacer Mohammad Abbas for the 2020 County Championship. Abbas will be available for the first nine games of the season post which he is expected to join the Pakistan squad for the Test series in England.

Guilty as Charged
Former Pakistan opener Nasir Jamshed has pleaded guilty to bribery charges that were levied on him in December 2018 by British National Crime Agency (NCA). "Three men have been charged with bribery offenses as part of an NCA investigation into cricket match spot-fixing in tournaments organized by national cricket boards from Pakistan and Bangladesh," the British agency said last year.
